Mystery: Lucky One

Chapter 40 Chapter 4 “Destined Encounter”

After accompanying Klein to meet Benson and Melissa, they parted ways. Klein worriedly told Alice: "If you have anything, please contact me."

Alice goes to the bank to withdraw the remaining £200 in her account.

As for where the money comes from...it's very shameful that Alice is actually paid within Nighthawks...

Arriving at Enmat Port in Tingen, Alice spent a huge sum of 10 pounds to buy a ticket to Pritzker Port.

As a bustling terminal, Pulitzer Harbor has many unloaders in addition to tourists.

Being submerged in the crowd in Pulitzer Harbor, Alice suddenly felt a little confused: How on earth did the Extraordinary of the "monster" path guarantee that he could meet his target and recognize him in this situation?

After leaving the busiest area of ​​the pier, Alice frowned and began to think about what to do next.

"Hi, miss, is this your first time in Backlund? Do you need a tour guide?" A small boy noticed the confused Alice and nimbly walked through the crowd and came to Alice.

Alice was slightly startled. She raised her head and found several children of similar age doing similar things nearby in the distance. She suddenly understood the group this boy belonged to.

"I'm here to find someone," Alice then looked at the boy and made her request, "I'm looking for someone...well, a guy who looks very mysterious at first glance and is waiting for someone here."

This description lacking information did not defeat the boy in front of him who sincerely wanted to make money: "I remembered it when you said that! There has been a weirdo wandering around Pulitzer Port in the past few days, and he kept saying that he was waiting for someone. A 'destined encounter'..."

The boy's description made Alice silent for a moment, and she began to think about the possibility that going to this man would be considered a lunatic.

"Are you here to see him?" the boy asked after introducing the situation.

So Alice had to answer: "Maybe? Anyway, take me to see it first?"

Alice soon met the Beyonder of the "Monster" path under the guidance of this boy - it was not that she was so sure, but that as soon as the other person saw her, he showed an inexplicable smile and said, "It seems I have to wait. You are the one."

Alice felt that she should give the little boy some money to let him go, and she found a 1p coin from her body - thankfully, she was not searched when she was buried.

In short, Alice sent away the boy named Tour Guide who was actually begging with 1 penny, and then looked at this mysterious man: "...So, why are you sure that the person you are waiting for is me?"

The mysterious man didn't speak. His eyes swept across the surrounding crowd. Alice's eyes followed his movements and understood what he meant: they couldn't possibly chat in such a crowded place.

Alice followed a stranger into a closed room with such great heart, allowing the stranger to set up a spiritual barrier, putting her in a situation where no one would come to save her even if she screamed - oh, maybe Mr. Fool could still hear her prayers.

Fortunately, this mysterious man is not a bad person. He looked at Alice and said: "Where to start? Then introduce yourself first. I am Charlie King, from the School of Life." The School of Life... this term Alice was slightly startled, but out of politeness, Alice also introduced herself: "I am..."

She stopped suddenly. This was not her intentional behavior. She just saw a picture: a girl was pricked by a spindle and then fell asleep in a castle.

"Sleeping Beauty"...Compared with the ignorance at the beginning, this time Alice remembered the name of this story. Of course she understood what it meant - in the beginning, this was how she got her name.

However, Charlie King's confused gaze made Alice realize that she didn't have much time to think carefully about a new pseudonym. It didn't seem right to use the original name directly. She could only say obediently: "Boo." Riel Rose.”

"Hello, Miss Rose," Charlie King looked at Alice who stopped talking and asked, "Who told you I was here?"

"This is also my question," Alice pursed her lips and responded, "Why are you waiting for me here? How do you know the person you are waiting for is me? You..."

Charlie King raised his hand to signal Alice to stop asking questions: "I don't know you, and I haven't seen your portrait before. In fact, what fate told me was not to wait for you here - but to tell me Let the former Storm Bishop know my location."

Storm Bishop? Does he mean the Hanged Man? Alice was stunned for a moment and combined the information given by Charlie King with the intelligence from the Tarot meeting, but she still had a question: "In this case, how did you recognize me?"

"Someone entrusted me to negotiate a deal with you." Charlie King's expression suddenly became serious. "He said that when I see you, I will understand that the person I am looking for is you."

"He?" Alice frowned fiercely and repeated this personal pronoun that belonged exclusively to gods and angels.

Charlie King didn't answer the question, and Alice realized she couldn't possibly get the answer. She changed the question: "So what did you understand when you saw me?"

"This is the strangest thing," Charlie King looked at Alice with interest, "It's very strange... I obviously feel that I should have seen your fate, and I should have seen a lot of things from it, but I can't see anything. Didn’t remember.”

Alice looked at him in confusion, and Charlie King looked back. In the end, Alice gave up first and looked away: "What kind of deal is it?"

Charlie King was silent for a moment, frowned and said: "He asked me to give you the potion formula of the 'Monster' Path Sequence 6 'Disaster Priest'..."

"?" Alice looked at him in shock. Although Alice's next plan included finding the formula for the potion, as soon as she finished digesting the potion, someone came to her with the formula for the next sequence to make a deal. This was Not a bit...

For a moment, Alice thought of 0-08, but this was obviously different from 0-08 - 0-08 cared about rationality, and most of the things she had experienced from waking up to now were unreasonable. It can be said.

"What does He need from me?" Despite her doubts, Alice decided to hear the deal first.

"He hopes that you will help seal a sealed object one day in the future." Charlie King gave the answer well prepared.

　Maybe everyone is more familiar with Princess Aurora when it comes to Sleeping Beauty... Ah, yes, but Aurora doesn't have a surname, and Brielle Rose's version has a surname (you)
